Thanks for the replies guys.

As over nicks post. . . Long ratchet is so useful. E.g. Caliber Carrie bolts. Yes it breaks loose but they're still FT and a short ratchet is a pain.

Re caliper carrier bolts, I find if you turn the steering so the calliper side of the wheel points outboard, once loosened, you can get an electric impact wrench on the bolts and just wiz them out.

Need to be careful nobody is working on the other side though.
